“A rising sun died in America and the world on Nov. 22, 1963. Some say that we have never again seen such a rising sun in the sky as we did that morning. Even if it was cloudy or raining that day, the country and world were more innocent and optimistic at that moment than they have been since then. Some say that a piece of all of us – the hope that helps us get through another day - died that day. Others say the act just opened the eyes of many about what the U.S. government and other governments had done in our names for a long time.”

Death of the Rising Sun: A Search for Truth in the John F. Kennedy Assassination

“I can remember when believing in conspiracies wasn’t cool. Now, in thesecond decade of the twenty-first century, more people are starting tosense that things may not be as they appear to be. The truth in Lord Acton’sclassic axiom that “Power corrupts, and absolute power corrupts absolutely”becomes more self-evident every day. Politicians from the only two partieswe have to choose from break promises, are unresponsive to the will of thepeople, and opt for war, austerity measures, and state control over and overagain. Gary Allen, author of the book None Dare Call It Conspiracy, definedthings perfectly when he wrote, “It must be remembered that the first job ofany conspiracy, whether it be in politics, crime or within a business office, isto convince everyone else that no conspiracy exists.”
